Uneventful. Slow.We kept waiting for something to happen. Anything at all but it kept just trotting along at the same pace. Anticlimactic. Maybe if you've never seen a movie before or haven't seen many movies you might find it watchable. Wasted the whole night in this movie, wish I turned it off at the beginning and put something better on.

I've watched this film more than once, and it's fresh every time. The details you might miss the first time are more relevant today than ever. The underlying torment and suicidal thoughts Sarah has are brilliantly wovjen into a chilling suspenseful conflict until she ... well, watch for yourself ad find out.

I started watching this movie with no idea what it was about or expectations. That's why I'm not going to summarize the plot. Because the movie works best in discovering the truths that lie beneath the surfaces of the two main characters: a beleaguered pregnant woman and her odd neighbor from across the street.I was singularly impressed with every aspect of the film. As a screenwriter, I was particularly impressed by the filmmaker's use of long takes, in which the two characters had conversations so gripping, I hung on every word. This is especially true for the big revelation made at roughly the mid-point of the movie. This speaks well, not only of the screenplay, but of the director's trust in and respect for the audience's intelligence.The film has its creepy and unsettling moments, but I can't truly characterize it as a horror flick. It's more like a story of redemption and hope. And how, even when you feel you have no worth, someone may be looking out for you.I will warn you, though, I'm not a big fan of depicting cruelty to animals. And while a certain scene with a cat nearly made me lose it, the movie's overall theme of forgiveness and spiritual renewal more than made up for that.

My wife and I were lucky enough to attend the world premiere of Blessid a few weeks ago near Boston. I'm interested in lots of movies filmed in the area where I live, but Blessid is so much more than a local film. The story line is intriguing, the dialog is both deep and humorous (at times) and the ending is a surprise. Many of the actors are not well known, but I would bet we'll be seeing them a lot more in future pictures. Kudos, too, to the overall cinematography and editing; you can tell this was lovingly produced over many months of creative work. This movie deserves widespread distribution, and I hope it gets it. Highly recommended.
